Béarn (French pronunciation: [be.aʁn]; Gascon: Bearn or Biarn; Basque: Bearno or Biarno; Latin: Benearnia, Bearnia) is one of the traditional provinces of France, located in the Pyrenees mountains and in the plain at their feet, in southwest France. Along with the three Basque provinces of Soule, Lower Navarre, and Labourd, the principality of Bidache, as well as small parts of Gascony, it forms in the southwest the current département of Pyrénées-Atlantiques (64). The capitals of Béarn were Beneharnum (until 841), Morlaàs (from ca. 1100), Orthez (from the second half of the 13th century), then Pau (beginning in the mid-15th century).

Christian Delacoux exhibits permanently at home, between Pau and Lourdes in Montaut, a small village of 1200 souls. The location of the showroom is visible on the map : it is in the heart of the village, on the church square. To ensure that the artist is there, the best is to contact him before your visit.

En 1998, l’artiste Chahab achète l’ancienne friche industrielle totalement délabrée de Nay afin de la rénover pour y établir un espace d’art contemporain : la Minoterie. L’association Nayart est créée à cette occasion. Depuis, Nayart n’a de cesse de faire connaître l’art contemporain au cœur du territoire rural de la Plaine de Nay, pour un public souvent éloigné de l’offre culturelle, et en particulier les publics scolaires. Le champ d’intervention s’étend plus largement sur le territoire des Pyrénées-Atlantiques et des Hautes-Pyrénées. La Minoterie a désormais acquis une renommée aussi bien auprès du grand public que des professionnels, grâce à une programmation exigeante d’artistes nationaux et internationaux. La structure accueille désormais plus de 5000 visiteurs par an, dont mille scolaires. Autour de ces expositions, Nayart propose aussi au public une programmation de spectacles vivants, conférences sur l’histoire de l’art ou de stages ouverts aux adultes et aux enfants.
